Real estate investment school

In recent months, have been coming across information from various companies offering to teach wealth-creation strategies. Almost every month get seminar tickets from at least one company. Every once in a while I attend such seminars, primarily to learn something new as there's always something that I didn't know previously.

Recently, learnt about a school called Nouveau Riche University. Nouveau Riche University teaches students the way to create wealth via real estate investments. Their programs are geared primarily towards adults who are looking for ways to increase their earnings but may not know where to start.

Nouveau Riche offers both the instructor-led and home study programs, and provides students the flexibility to choose from a wide variety of courses. For their instructor-led curriculum, students also have the flexibility to choose the days of their classes. The university pairs students with a student advisor who provides the necessary guidance in customizing the educational preferences based on the students' personal knowledge and investment preferences.

Nouveau Riche's diverse and comprehensive curriculum was designed based on consultations with experienced, real estate professionals and consultants. The courses taught by the school seek to provide students with the knowledge on a variety of real estate concepts, the pros and cons of various long term and short term investment strategies, etc. The school uses a variety of teaching techniques, including case studies, interactive classroom discussions with other students and role-playing exercises. As per the Nouveau Riche University’s Web site, the school uses time-tested Instructional System Design (ISD) principles to teach students the principles of real-estate investing. The goal of the school is to help build confidence in its students in getting started in their real estate investment career.

The school offers a variety of introductory, intermediate and advanced real-estate related courses as part of its curriculum. Some of the courses include:

- Building Your Team
- Buy & Hold I
- Buyer Beware
- Real Estate 101
- Business Financial Management
- Buy & Hold II/Landlording
- Computer Property Analysis
- Creative Acquisition Strategies
- Creative Financing

- Pre-Foreclosures
- Tax Lien Certificates
- Tax Strategies
- Advanced Tax Strategies
- IRA & Retirement Plan Investing
- Probate Purchases
- Multi-Family Dwellings
- Seller-Financed Notes, and others

As is evident from the above list, the list of the courses offered by the school is long and comprehensive. The school updates its curriculum offerings periodically by adding, changing or removing courses.

As per the school's Web site, the classes are designed to be practical and hands-on. For example, in the Bookkeeping class, students use QuickBooks® software to perform a variety of business transactions, including creating chart of accounts, profit and loss statement, and various other financial statements. Such knowledge is designed to help students get their real estate investment business up and running.

As a corporate entity, Nouveau Riche Corporation also offers its customer access to the Investor Concierge™ web portal. The Investor Concierge web portal that is designed for servicing the needs of Nouveau Riche investors. The University also has a blog site, Nouveau Riche University Real Estate Investing Blog, that provides lot of useful, real-estate related information.
